"General, the Japanese have sent envoys again. How should we respond?"
At this time, a general asked.
"Tell the envoy to agree to their terms and have them send troops immediately."
Upon hearing this, Yizhi Wende was silent for a moment.
"General, do you really want to agree to their terms?"
"These bastard Japanese are clearly taking advantage of the situation to rob us."
Hearing this, everyone around offered their consolation.
"The situation is critical right now. What else can we do if we don't agree?"
After hearing what everyone said, Yizhi Wende sighed.
"But you don't have to worry too much. Since it's a condition, it can be changed at any time."
"As long as we survive this crisis, even if we change our minds, what can those pirates do to us?"
Yizhi Wende has a complete and profound mind.
"But...will the Japanese pirates believe it?"
Then, one person couldn't help but ask.
"What does it matter whether they believe it or not? Will they give up this piece of fat meat?"
Yi Zhi Wende smiled faintly when he heard this.
Hearing this, everyone around immediately breathed a sigh of relief. So that's how it is.
…
Half a day later, in a valley fifty miles away from Kaesong.
Thirty thousand Japanese pirates are gathering here.
This group of Japanese pirates came from Nara, Japan, and their commander was named Harada Toshihiko.
Harada Toshihiko came to Goryeo three months ago on the orders of Empress Suiko, preparing to expand the territory of Fuso.
But things went against his wishes. Harada Toshihiko did not expect that the Koreans were not only strong, but also determined to resist to the death.
After several battles, both sides suffered heavy losses.
This result made Harada Toshihiko realize that if he wanted to conquer Goryeo, relying on his tens of thousands of people would definitely not be enough, and he had to find another way.
After much thought, Harada Toshihiko came up with the idea of using deterrence and intimidation to force Goryeo to sign a series of unequal treaties, and then to gradually erode Goryeo.
Of course, the Koreans would not agree to the conditions proposed by Harada Toshihiko.
For this reason, Harada Toshihiko was also very annoyed
But the arrival of Lu Ping's army brought a turning point in the situation, and Harada Toshihiko realized that his chance had come.
"Mr. Harada, is there any news from Goryeo yet?"
In the tent, a Japanese pirate general asked.
"Well, I guess they are still discussing it."
"However, I believe they will agree soon, otherwise their capital will soon be captured by the Han army."
Toshihiko Harada has a great deal of knowledge.
"Humph, those Han people, relying on their numbers to think they can take over Korea, they're dreaming!"
"Once we take over Goryeo, they will be next."
A Japanese pirate general shouted angrily.
"Yes, Ono-kun is right. After we pacify Goryeo, we will then travel all over the mountains and rivers of Han."
"By then, all the Han people will be trampled under our feet, hahahaha!"
Harada Toshihiko had a grim smile on his face, as if he had already seen the future.
Just as Harada Toshihiko was imagining the future, suddenly, a spy came hurriedly.
"Mr. Harada, good news! Goryeo has agreed to our terms."
"Oh? So soon?"
"I didn't expect those Koreans to be so stupid! They gave in so easily."
"But whatever, since that's the case, let's act immediately."
Harada Toshihiko said excitedly.
"Yes! Mr. Harada!" everyone said in unison.
Then, the Japanese pirates began to prepare.
Half an hour later, the Japanese pirate army came out in full force.
However, just as they stepped out of the camp, they heard a burst of dense horse hoofbeats coming from afar.
"Alert! Something's happening!"
Upon hearing the sound, Harada Toshihiko immediately gave orders, and many Japanese pirates immediately took full preparations.
In a moment, a large group of heavy cavalry appeared in their sight.
"Boom~"
The iron hooves trampled on the ground, splashing up a cloud of dust.
"Oh no, it's the cavalry."
"We've been ambushed!"
Seeing the heavy cavalry coming towards him, Harada Toshihiko's face turned pale instantly, and he no longer had the arrogance and domineering look he had before.
"Quick, stop them!"
Harada Toshihiko shouted in horror.
But it's of no use.
The heavy cavalry was invincible, charging forward and no one could stop them.
“Ah~”
Accompanied by shrill screams, the Japanese pirates were slaughtered one by one.
In an instant, countless Japanese pirates were killed or wounded, and blood flowed like a river.
Seeing this scene, Harada Toshihiko's eyes were red and bloodshot.
"Bageya Road!"
"Retreat, retreat quickly!"
Harada Toshihiko roared and turned around and ran away with his most elite Kai samurai.
Harada Toshihiko was not stupid. From the moment the enemy's heavy cavalry appeared, he knew he was defeated.
Although his 30,000 men were all elite warriors, they were not on the same level as the heavy cavalry.
Unless he also had heavy cavalry, but unfortunately he didn't.
In this case, the only way out is to escape
As the saying goes, as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.
If he stayed any longer, he wouldn't even have the chance to escape.
But he escaped, but other Japanese pirates were not so lucky.
In the face of absolute strength, there is no power to resist at all.
In a short time, they were overwhelmed by heavy cavalry, and corpses were everywhere.
"Take off your armor and follow me in pursuit."
Seeing Harada Toshihiko fleeing in the distance, Huo Qubing gave orders coldly.
"promise."
Immediately, a team of two thousand heavy cavalry took off their armor and rode away in pursuit.
“Ah~”
"Help, someone save me..."
"Ah~ I want to go back home."
"Help……"
The screams coming from behind him made Harada Toshihiko feel heartbroken.
But he had no time to care about these things and could only flee desperately.
However, his speed was ultimately no match for the cavalry.
Soon, he was caught up.
“Puff…”
Huo Qubing swung his spear and pierced Harada Toshihiko's chest.
.........
At the same time, towards Kaesong.
A siege is underway.
Early this morning, Lu Ping launched an attack on Kaesong.
The two sides have been fighting for more than two hours. After paying a considerable price, Lu Ping's side finally gained the upper hand.
At this moment, under the leadership of dozens of generals, the siege army has successfully gained a foothold on the west wall.
Lu Ping did not participate in the battle in person, but watched the battle from the foot of the city.
It was only a matter of time before the city was captured, and Lu Ping's current attention was more focused on Huo Qubing.
As long as Huo Qubing can get rid of the Japanese pirates in time, he will definitely win the war.
Lu Ping had just arrived in Kaesong yesterday and immediately sent out a large number of scouts to search for the whereabouts of the Japanese pirates.
Hard work pays off. That night, the scouts discovered the Japanese pirate army fifty miles away.
After receiving the report from the scouts, Lu Ping immediately ordered Huo Qubing to lead his troops to ambush.
The Japanese pirates still have a certain combat capability, but it is undoubtedly like hitting a rock with an egg when fighting against the heavy cavalry.
In addition, with Huo Qubing leading the team personally, there shouldn't be any major problems.
"Report! My Lord, Goryeo is requesting peace talks with us."
Just then, a soldier came hurriedly to report.
